Glocal Foundation for International Development Cooperation (representative Park Chung-kwan) said on the 7th that actor Lee Jung-jae donated 11,000,000 won to a sanitary pad support project for vulnerable female adolescents.
Lee Jung-jae appeared on tvN You Quiz on the Block and added 10,000,000 won of his own money to the 1,000,000 won prize he won on the quiz to help improve the hygiene environment of vulnerable female adolescents in Korea. The donation will be used to provide sanitary pads to vulnerable female adolescents in Korea who cannot sufficiently obtain menstrual products due to financial difficulties.
Glocal Foundation has been steadily running a sanitary pad support project since 2017 to improve the health and hygiene environment of female adolescents in Korea. In cooperation with social welfare facilities, schools and community child centers nationwide, it regularly provides sanitary pads to adolescents in need, and recently has expanded the project to include support for hygiene product sets, improvement of hygiene facilities, and sex education programs so that female adolescents can live in a more stable environment.
Glocal Foundation representative Park Chung-kwan said, "This donation will be a great help to female adolescents who are struggling with school and daily life due to a lack of sanitary pads," and added, "Glocal Foundation will continue steady support so that vulnerable female adolescents can confidently protect their bodies and rights. I sincerely thank actor Lee Jung-jae for joining with a warm heart."
Glocal Foundation is an international development cooperation NGO that has obtained Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (UN ECOSOC) and carries out active projects including education support and health care projects for developing countries overseas, as well as domestic child and youth support projects, low-income women support projects, and social economy projects.
